Summon your mounts, open up a portal, and set a course for Southern California for BlizzCon 2016! Blizzard's tenth epic gaming convention and community celebration is returning to the Anaheim Convention Center on Friday, November 4 and Saturday, November 5, 2016.

Group up with your fellow Blizzard gamers and get ready for two days of in-depth discussion panels with our developers, hands-on play time with our latest games, and intense esports tournaments featuring top pro gamers from around the world. We hope you'll join us as we celebrate 25 years of Blizzard games-and you, the players everywhere that have helped bring them to life.
